i'm not femmefatal, but i'll answer your question as if you were asking me.
because they tried to convert me. because they are stupid and lack free thought. because they believe what can be considered an outright lie, a fallacy, through pure objective logic. because of the september 11 slaughter (i'm not talking about 2001). because of polygamy. because they take over entire communities and harass and shun everyone who doesn't convert out of the community. because they push their moral agenda on everyone else. because they are hypocrites. because i have yet to see any mormon do anything beneficial to society as a whole.
i lived in utah for a number of years, so i've met many many mormons.
if i were to believe that joe smith is a prophet i might as well believe i am a prophet and my dog heshie is a saint.
I have met many non religous people who have tried to convert people out of their religion or convince them that religion is just merely a cult, but I wouldnt want to see all these people dead. They just firmly believe that people are better off without religion, but I wouldnt persecute them becuase of their beliefs. That is any awlful way to think.
O'RLY?
Let me ask you this....If I were responsible for the single most jarring experience of your life, don't you think it would be appropriate for you to hate me?... If I convinced your family that I would take care of you and then came into your home and dragged you against your will to a deplorable prison in a third world country and treated you with less respect then I would a sewer rat, beat you up on a regular basis and forced you to endure systematic torment.... might you even want me dead?
If it was part of my religious beliefs to treat other people this way, there in convincing myself that what I was doing to you and countless other innocent children was justifiable by my own personal governing "god", would you be tempted to judge that religion as a whole?
Furthermore, If every other person you met who adhered to that lifestyle was a complete and utter asshole, just like me, the one you really hate, wouldn't you be willing to see them all lying in a mass grave somewhere?....
no?... really?..... okay okay well either that's just my sick sense of HUMOR or the program REALLY fucked with my head.
:roflmao:
Seriously that was just a joke... If I got the swine flu I would go to the hospital and probably be fine in a few days.
